Lets Taco bout it

Is "Taco Drought" a correct term to describe three long weeks of no taco intake?

Maybe there is no such term to describe that situation because people should not go that long without having tacos!

Well ladies and gents, the *insert nonexistent term here* is over! Spring break and getting settled back into school have seriously messed up my schedules for everything; sleeping schedule, eating schedule, homework schedule. It has been a hard couple of weeks for the taco blogger, but I am happy to announce that I am back with a pretty good taco place!

This week, I went to "La Herradura." So, I had heard pretty good reviews about this place, but was even more excited when I heard that these tacos were similar to "El Primo," tacos. El primo's is the best taco place in Rio Bravo, Tamps. and not only by my expert opinion, but by everyone in the city! totally not lying, there's probably stats and charts to prove it all. I'm definitely going by the fact that they're always busy.

Back to the valley though, "La Herradura," is in Pharr, but some would say Las Milpas, so it's pretty out there, but it's worth it.

When we got there, it was pretty packed. There was seating in three separate sections inside the location, and outdoor seating too. We looked around and sat at a table where a group of people had just gotten up to leave. The waitress cleaned it up super fast and took our drink order. Mexican sodas for the win; coke and a joya de manzana.

We got our drinks and didn't beat around the bush. We wanted tacos, bistek to be exact. It was surprising how fast they came out, but expecting that that is what most people order, I can see why. We got our order of five tacos, but they were so stacked, you couldn't even see the tortillas under! On the sides, we got cilantro, fresh onion, grilled onion, and red and green hot sauce. Being an experienced "El Primo, foodie, I knew just how to get my tacos into my mouth without making a mess, and of course I'm sharing with you.

They're in the business of taco making, and boy do they know... these tacos come with two tortillas, this is somewhat common, but I haven't written about this here. You need to split one taco to make two! There's enough to do that. Knowing this, you might have some to take come for later, or if you don't back down from a challenge, you're good.

The tacos did not disappoint. 4/5 is what I'm rating. I will say that it depends on the person because these tacos are kind of greasy. Tacos are not for dieting, so that does not bother me, but the friend that tagged along made a comment about it. I liked the flavor, I liked the amount, and I liked how genuine they were. When I think of valley street tacos, or search for good tacos, I feel like this is what you get, and they made me a .5 rating happier.
